Odd Christie defending at the back, and no one filled his gap at the ruck

How can a 10 thats been around top class rugby be such an average goal kicker ?
It beggars belief

Thank you Nick. Was off the Tahs

"Been around"? Guy's a 100 test AB

Rieko's wearing gumboots

Is he injured?

17-6 (not 15-6 TJ)

Nicely done by Ioane

@taniwharugby Not bad for the worst player in New Zealand.

Try?

@booboo

Looks like 3 reasons no, so yeah it will be awarded

Even Springer could have scored that. Magic placement by Lam.

Try

That’s incredible.

22-6 at the half.

24-6 at halftime according to stuff and NZH. To the Blues in case anyone was reading this thread and thought they were the worst team since the 1899 Cleveland Spiders (for all you baseball fans out there).

If the ref has called use it and another player joins the ruck it should be a scrum to the opposition.

Lovely work Tuipulotu

Tupou playing his way out of the Lions series

Backline finally engaged after 16 games.

BB has been pretty good today.

Only if you ignore his kicking.

High tackle

Still high, first contact notwithstanding

How did the Chiefs lose to this lot?

Lam is not doing his chances any harm

@booboo absolutely, earnt a chance.

Man, the Waratahs are terrible.

We're playing really well now. How we should have played all year

@Tim yeah doesn't exactly feel like the blues are putting on a clinic, but the scoreboard says so.

We seem to rather recently have a bit of choice at 12 (although not sure about QT's health there is also JB and a couple of others). Which is encouraging.

Time to bench Christie.

38-6 to the Blues at 60 minutes in is rather surprising.

Nah this is the most fluid play from the Blues this year.

Riccitelli must be one of the better NZ players never an AB contender.

Worst centre I've ever seen.

@gt12 said in Blues vs Waratahs 2025:

Jesus Rieko where is the pace?

Clever play to point out it's centre or nothing

Good performance by the Blues. Far too good the Waratahs. Heading to the playoffs.
